$19 at Plugin Boutique (down from $149), an 87% discount. The sale ends July 3, 2026.
What it is
SSL Native Channel Strip 2 recreates the console strip from SSL's legendary 9000K analog desk in plugin form. It combines a 4-band parametric EQ with switchable E-Series and G-Series curves, a compressor, and a gate/expander into one signal chain, so a single plugin handles EQ shaping, dynamics control, and filtering with that clean, cohesive SSL console character producers have chased on records for decades.
Who it's for
Mix engineers and producers who want one reliable go-to for shaping individual tracks or full mix busses across any genre, especially those who prefer dialing in EQ, dynamics, and filtering from a single interface instead of stacking separate plugins for each job.
Key features
- The 4-band parametric EQ switches between E-Series and G-Series characteristics for two distinct tonal flavors
- The compressor and gate/expander run on independent sidechains with both soft and hard knee compression modes plus fast and slow attack switches
- Variable high-pass and low-pass filters sit alongside a customizable signal flow so you can reorder the processing chain to taste
- Anti-Cramping technology keeps EQ curves accurate even under aggressive boosts and cuts, and the plugin runs as AU, VST2, VST3, and AAX Native on Mac and Windows
